5.2 Functions
Concentrator plus and Vacufuge plus can be used as a concentrator, a desiccator or a centrifuge. For the
concentrator and desiccator functions, there are three different modes available for the quick concentration
of different solvents:
To set the desired function, press the mode/vent key before operation of the device.
5.3 Preparation for concentration
5.3.1 Switching on the device
Switch on the device at the mains power switch.
•Display is active.
•Lid is released (lid indicator lamp lights up).
•You can now open the lid.
•The parameter settings of the last run are displayed.
Function Mode Suitable for
Concentrator V-AQ (vacuum -
aqueous)
aqueous solutions
V-AL (vacuum -
alcoholic)
alcoholic solutions
V-HV (vacuum - high
vapor)
solutions with high vapor pressure
Desiccator D-AQ (desiccator -
aqueous)
aqueous solutions
D-AL (desiccator -
alcoholic)
alcoholic solutions
D-HV (desiccator - high
vapor)
solutions with high vapor pressure and dry
substances
Centrifuge CEFU(centrifuge)
centrifugation at 1,400 min
-1
Use theV-AQ,V-AL,D-AQ orD-AL modes if possible, or press the mode/vent key from time to
time during the run.
During operation, you cannot change the set function. Instead, holding the mode/vent key
during the concentrator or desiccator function ventilates the rotor chamber.
Please note before putting the device into service that the ambient temperature during
operation must be between 15 and 35 °C.
At altitudes above 1000 m MSL (risk of insufficient cooling air supply), measures in
accordance with DIN EN 60034-1; VDE 0530-1 are required.
